Comments:
I've got this book. It ranges from the very easy (unsettled three) to more difficult positions. Very good to have a good idea of what life and death is about.
kokiri this is an excellent book that covers a great deal from the basic killing shapes to the carpenter's square and much in between. There's a good mix - enough problems to keep you thinking, but broken up into short chapters to keep you interested.
malweth This book can be very hard for the L&D Beginner (that's me...), but introduces good L&D concepts. I'd recommend pairing this with Life and Death from gobase.org and Beginner Exercises - it's been working for me so far!
boubou? Be careful, there are some mistakes in this book, and a lot in the chapter covering the carpenter's square.
Grauniad: It would be helpful to others if you could report such mistakes in the Errata? subpage.
